Aim
The aim of this institution is to improve cooperation and coordination between research institutes, academic departments and industry that form the European biomedical imaging community in order to create a network of European biomedical imaging institutes, co-ordinate the development of biomedical imaging technologies within Europe and support the dissemination of knowledge with the ultimate goal of improving diagnosis, treatment and prevention of disease.
It develops and organises research projects within the Sixth and the Seventh Framework Programme of the European Union to create an environment in which medical doctors, physicists, chemists, mathematicians, molecular biologists, computer scientists, and other technologists and technicians can co-operate productively.

“The aim of every political constitution is, or ought to be, first to obtain for rulers men who possess most wisdom to discern, and most virtue to pursue, the common good of the society; and in the next place, to take the most effectual precautions for keeping them virtuous whilst they continue to hold their public trust.”
